I agree.

I raced my neighbor from a stop (he has an EVO RS, the stripped down weight reduction Evo 8) and he put about 1.5 cars on me right off the bat with his AWD car then I slowly started to gain on him and would have caught him but we slowed down to enter our complex. Even with a 7k clutch dump you will be hard pressed to keep up with EVO from a dead stop.

You guys need to come around my way and race the guys I know who drive Evo's. Your opinion will change drasticly because stock S2's should not beat Stock Evo's, especially from a dig.

I know so many people with evos who made 13.3-13.5 passes with their cars when they were stock. NO ONE with an S2000 can touch that time and if they can then I will to them and feed them grapes and exotic fruits and such in hopes of learning their driving style.

With a crappy driver from a stop yes but not with a excellent driver though with conditions being normal.

actually i believe the 0-60 of the EVO and S2k aren't too far off. 5.0 to 5.2 maybe?

Look at my sig, I have lots of experience
Stock 00-03 s2000's will pull on stock 03-04 evo's at higway speeds. Stock 00-03 s2000's will loose to 05 evo's at highway speeds. I dont know about the 04-05 s2000's.......I guess the jury is still out on that one.
